Need Pet Help: Cat & Hermit Crabs.

[SecretsLive]

I have four year old male tuxedo cat named Princess. About a year ago he had to get his leg amputated due to a pitbull attack. He had live in my room for a few weeks for the stitches to come out. Then, he had to stay in my room because of the cats picking on him. So, now he's fully healed and he's still in my room. My mom won't let me take him out and I just got my room redone and he's putting cat litter everywhere. My mom won't let me take him out and there's no other place to pt him. She thinks he sprays- which he doesn't -and he's nuetered. I have three other cats ( soon four if I can find Storm. ) and the female, Holly, who's two years old fights with him. Also, Jeffrey our 1 year old cat tries to play-fight with him and Princess freaks. Also, he sometimes fights with Fluffy. Please no comments like: "you hav 2 put te cat dwn cuz it pes, dats gros!" That cat is my life, and not to meantion he's worth over $1,000! And yes, I did get several comments like that from trolls on foopets.

I have three hermit crabs- Ladybug, Kitty, and Bubble. I got five last Easter, all who died somehow, except Ladybug and Elizee. I got two more on my birthday in Ocean City Maryland. They're two small purple and red claws. Ladybug is a tan claw, as I call them. Elizee just died for some reason and she didn't fall out of her shell. I couldn't even pull her out, but she was dead. The three remaining hermit crabs hadn't moved for an entire day after I just gave them fresh food. Usually they're running to eat. They were very active hermit crabs, but now they won't move. And yes, they're alive. After I picked them up and put them back down, they started to move, though. But then they'd just stop after a few seconds. I just bought them a heater because it's winter, but I don't think that helped.

EDIT
Also, I think my dog ( 4 year old female golden retriever ) may have seperation anxiety. And she's alone most of the day. I already did a test on her, I went into the bathroom for a few minutes at an unfamiliar house and she started whimpering really loud and pacing back and forth.

The crabs might need water. Other than that, maybe you should ask on a site dedicated to real pets.

I don't know any sites. And they do have water- salt water and regular.

About Princess, no you shouldn't put him down, that's mean. But I don't have a male cat ANYMORE, but when he sprayed, we would spritz him with water. I seems harsh, but it teaches cats that spraying isn't okay. Although, you probably shouldn't spritz Princess, because that would make him run away, which probably would hurt his fake leg. But, who knows? PS, why is he a male and called Princess?

When we rescued him we were told he was female.
And I'm not there when he sprays, he does it alone.

They hermit crab does that to. Usually they'll come out at night in the winter (My hermit crab does o-o). I guess they are just trying to stay warm by huddling in their shells.

Sometimes,they die because of the coldness. If you have a heater,like in your ceiling,keep that on in the winter. Don't turn on any fans. Also,if you have a small towel,cover up the cage.
